The Board of Trustees of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has “set up” a committee to interface with aggrieved members of the party, especially Rivers State Governor Nyesome Wike.

The Chairman of the BoT, Walid Jibrin, disclosed this to journalists on Wednesday shortly after the BoT meeting which lasted over two hours.

The committee is a committee of the whole, he said. This means all members of the BoT are part of the reconciliatory panel as well.

“We have set out, from this BoT, a committee to interface between warring factions particularly between the acrimony taking place between the presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar and Governor Wike and any other conflict that is taking place in the nation, within our party formation.”

Jibrin did not say how long the panel will take to reconcile the aggrieved members.

“I cannot tell you the grievances and the duration but right now, we are heading to the candidate’s house in Asokoro to start this project.”

This comes about a month after the PDP recommended a delegation to meet with Wike when he returns from his foreign trip.

Wike is believed to be aggrieved over the decision of the Party’s presidential candidate to snub him as the running mate for the 2023 elections.
